hey i want to connect my ps2 slim silver to my 100GB USB HDD so my kids can play so many games (which will be on that HDD)
I have tried so many tactics such as:
1-Swap magic 3 burned on a DVD as ISO format
2-DVD loader and the same process.
3-HDD loader.
The problem is as I expect about the operating system for PS2 and my Laptop (Vista 32bit Enterprise edition)
I do not know how to order the PS2 to load the game from my HDD in place of the DVD drive.

I had use the USBExtreme Software to install the game but the problem is the SW which I had mentioned said the ' this disc can't be played"
or the DVDloader (the only DVD that is semi working) said that there is no disc (whereas the USB HDD is NTFS formated and USBexterem is used to install the GAMe via the GUI interface or the ul_install command
So, do you think that I need to buy some special hardware or cable or to use the ethernet connection in order to manage/control the PS2 via the Laptop .
please help me because my kids are willing to use this idea and I promissed all of them to perform that task but I failed to do this for all of them ( I have 4 kids) Please help me.

hi
I have solved the problem by using of USBadvance CD
and at the start up of the PS2 I entered the load option and turn off the function that controls the input device.
Also, I found another solution but requires a special Hardware device called "memor32"
